Verdict

DIVINE EFFORT (4) progressed nicely last time out to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 2220m at Grafton after being prominent at the corner. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form. OUR SPARKY (9) made progress last time out, finishing third when she made late ground at the end of 1630m at Grafton. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. OTTOMAN EMPIRE (7) was thereabouts last time out when fifth over 1700m at Grafton after he was prominent throughout. The extra journey should play into his hands. Poses a significant threat. MAD ANA (1) will find this a fair but easier and gets an important 2kg claimer on in Spokes, who has saluted aboard prior. PRESSIPITATING (14) wasn't able to threaten last start at Grafton but the subsequent form from that maiden has been red-hot. Keeping safe.
